As I keep saying (and I am sorry you must be so bored of it by now!) I am really trying to use up as much of the stuff that I have had for ages this Christmas rather than buy new.

These socks were bought last year, sets of three pairs for 99p from B & M Bargains. I have used all the ones with a Christmas motif on first, filled them with assorted festive sweets and then added a bow and tag. I have 4 pairs of stripey socks left over and I shall probably fill them the same if these all go, but add a more elaborate festive tag to make up for the lack of motif.

This card measures 5ins x 5ins and is made using white linen effect card.

I’ve used Dovecraft Back to Basics Christmas 6 x 6 papers for this card plus a snowman from a pack of 6 from Docrafts Hot Picks range of toppers (30p the pack) and finally the sentiment is an Anita’s Message Tag (75p). A bit of faux stitching finishes off the card.
